Only one fine for a hit, two fines for other actions. After a week without fines, maybe the message is getting through.

Week 2 and the numbers are down. Is the message being heard? Time will tell as the season goes on, but players must be taking notice now that reckless and dangerous hits will cost them half a pay check. It is about time the CFL starting using this option rather than suspensions. Officials should also be told to error on the side of caution and eject players going high on hits with no regard to anyone’s safety. Or at least throw a flag.

The Tiger-Cats are to host first two games at Ron Joyce Stadium at McMaster University. No word on the television logistics for Ron Joyce Stadium. A poor option for Plan B, but a forced one. Such is the state of Canada’s football stadiums, where competing monopolies ensure there are no options.

Update: Maximum fine.
